What lighting is the stock lighting? I know they come different ways, also how old is the tank set up? What's in the tank now?

You need more lighting for a nem IMHO.

I don't think a bta will thrive with stock lighting. I have a bc29 with stock lighting and bought a green bta. It did fine for a day or 2 but is struggling now. I plan an led upgrade soon and hope he survives til then. IMO don't do it until you have better lighting.
Look at the top right of pic. That's the bta ...... It looks much better when actinics are on for sunset / sunrise ltg.

Not to mention the tank is 3.5 weeks old. Way to new and unstable for a nem. Is the tank cycled?

I have read a minimum of 6 months is required for an anemone to thrive

Stock lighting? Don't do it, it won't do well, don't waste the money.
They need strong light to survive. If you put one in under stock lighting and have corals in it already that nem will move around a lot trying to find a happy home with enough flow and enough light. While doing so it sting most corals along the way.
